Description

In this powerful, poignant and distinctively South African collection of short stories, Rayda Jacobs - leaving suddenly for Canada at the age of 21, to return for good only 27 years later - seeks to understand the deep marks that South Africa has left upon her. Frequently funny, often serious, always deceptively simple - these 'postcards' are the compassionate yet challenging creation of a gifted storyteller.

About the Author
Rayda Jacobs returned to South Africa after an absence of twenty-seven years. She has published 5 books, and is a full time writer and independent documentary filmmaker, living in Cape Town.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
